Dynamically-configurable baseboard management controller

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable storage mediums described herein are configured to dynamically configure a baseboard management controller to monitor a state of a server. For example, a configuration schema may be provided to the baseboard management controller. The configuration schema specifies each of the devices of the server that is to be monitored by the baseboard management controller. The configuration schema also specifies additional configuration details with respect to each of the devices. Based on the configuration information included in the configuration schema, the baseboard management controller performs a discovery sequence with respect to each of the devices to verify that such devices are communicatively coupled to the baseboard management controller. If the discovery sequence is successful, the baseboard management controller begins monitoring the devices. However, if the discovery sequence is unsuccessful, the baseboard management controller issues an error, thereby enabling the proper personnel to remediate the issue.
